minnbuckeye Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Beautiful finds as always! We visited the Burpee Museum of Natural History this weekend , in Rockford, Illinois. They had a spectacular life sized recreation of a carboniferous forest. So it is very timely that your examples are posted now. I can go back and reminisce with each and every fossil you showed! Thanks. Only wish I had my camera (or cell phone) along to record their display. Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamalama Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Another fine collection of Carboniferous fossils Gery. The Sphenopteris in particular is stunning. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
